Due to encrypted data in the config file causing potential issues, ConnectMeNow has now a new configuration format.
At first start it will try to convert you old configuration file to the new format. If you see an error message: Close ConnectMeNow, Delete the config file, and restart ConnectMeNow. Unfortunately, in that case you’d need to re-enter your servers – our apologies for the inconvenience.

Hello Hans, quick question to make sure I understand CMN correctly: I am using it on my MacBook. When I am at home, it connects to the network silently and automatically. That works very well now.

However, when I am away from home, where there is no network to connect, it shows me an error message “I am unable to connect…”. I thought that when there is no network, CMN will silently accept that until it may be a network is available again later but not “complain” by send a message.

It is correct that it will give an error message … unless you check “Check for network” but even than you will get an error message.I could, in a next version, add an option to optinally not display an error message when a network cannot be found of course.I can see the practical application in your example. In other cases I’d assume the user would like to know.

It seems that ConnectMeNow won’t work without problems on macOS 10.13.3. It freezes, it “forgets” it’s settings – to be short, it became useless. So my question is – will there be an update? I loved this little tool …

Thank you very much for the compliment, and my apologies for the late reply …

Yes there will be updates, I have a v2 beta available (download here) – keep in kind that it’s a test version and that I will most likely make some changes (make it 64 bit etc). But on my setup (10.13.2) it works great. I’ll look for the 10.13.3 update later today and will see if it breaks things …Also; I’m in the middle of a move from the US to Europe, so I’m a little limited in what I can and test. So it may take a little before I’m fully up and running again

As you sent me the link, I used this version – yea – v2 beta – which is working fine. I appreciate your tool because it’s helpful to mount volumes in the back silently – I could have done this with AppleScript/JavaScript as well – but not so comfortable … ;-)

Thanks for the feedback – I’ll still have to make a few changes, and hopefully I can deploy the final version as 64 bit and signed application. Seems you’re using ConnectMeNow exactly for the reason why I’ve created it haha …
